Recap: A dope 3-rounder between Emerson Kennedy and Nu Jerzey Twork from the former’s Last Second Sea Battle League, sees Twork (who’s had an excellent 2023 that isn’t being talked about as much as it should be by the usual battle rap pundits) bring the heat with a boatload of mocking/witty/mean personals, raucous street lines, gritty punches and holier-than-thou gun bars. While EK kept things competitive with a fresh plate of rigid punchlines, some solid personals of his own, a fly round 3 rebuttal and some sneaky but captivating wordplay. But despite a valiant effort from EK, it’s the more haymaker-lit and efficient Jersey juggernaut who takes both of the opening rounds for the win before EK came back to take the 3rd and avoid the shutout.
Verdict: Nu Jerzey Twork (W) 2-1
